Vanilla Peach is a tubular cowl designed for easy, breezy spring/summer knitting. Knit in the round, this pattern balances soothing stockinette with two delicate (and super easy to memorize) lace panels, creating a piece that’s just as relaxing to make as it is to wear. With three cast-on and bind-off options to suit every comfort level and modification notes, you can customize your experience from start to finish.

Perfect for warm-weather layering, Vanilla Peach drapes beautifully and looks stunning from every angle. Whether you’re knitting at the beach, in the garden, or with an iced coffee in hand, this pattern is your go-to for a light and lovely project.
